Meet Bobby the prince of prints
Hartlepool Mail
|June 26, 2025
A Hartlepool schoolboy is making more than just pocket money after his 3D printing business has taken off.
Bobby Lee, aged 12, is doing a roaring trade selling colourful toys and novelties he makes himself on numerous 3D printers that he has been able to buy with his profits.
The young entrepreneur only started in March after getting his first printer for his birthday.
Bobby, who runs 3D Bobby Lee, said: "At first I thought it would be a cool hobby.
"Then I came up with the idea of starting the business.
"At first I was just getting orders from my family.
"Then I started taking products into school and getting orders off my teachers and about 20 from children."
